The Humble Joy of Proper Thinking - Part 3

Pastor Verne preaching on part three of, “The Humble Joy of Proper Thinking.” Last Sunday we learned six categories of assessment from Philippians 4:8. This Sunday, we’ll learn the descriptions of virtue and praise and the directive to meditate on these things. We are taught by God to permeate our thoughts with the excellencies and efficiencies of God in the gospel, salvation, His goodness and love, along with His kindness and gifts. Our response is identified as praiseworthy. The object of praise is God. The reason for the praise are the benefits we have received. The action of thinking on these things flows out of our relationship with God. It is our satisfying relationship with God that produces proper behavior before God.
